Do you knowhow to best store and freeze your cookies and squares? Here are some tips:
1. Cool baking completely before storing.
2. Use airtight containers for storing. For freezing, choose freezer containers that seal tightly, are moisture-proofandvapour-resistant and are not prone to cracking at low temperatures.
3. Store and freeze soft cookies and crisp cookies in separate containers.
4. Decorated or frosted cookies should be stored in layers separated by wax paper or parchment paper.
5. To prevent shifting, use crumpled wax paper to cushion cookies or squares in corners of containers.
6. If storing or freezing in decorative cookie tins, place cookies or squares into freezer bags first as the tins may not be airtight.

8. For best quality, freeze cookies and squares for up to 3 months.
